Smart ForTwo Cityflame edition launches

The Smart ForTwo got a bit of a facelift in 2012 to keep it fresh until the all new ForTwo with a rear-engined, rear wheel drive platform to be shared with the next Renault Twingo, arrives in 2014, and the new CityFlame limited edition gets a cosmetic makeover to make its stand out.

That cosmetic makeover includes a bright yellow paint job - vivid pearlescent flame yellow – with a black tridion safety cell, black grill surrounds and mirror caps and a set of 15″ black painted alloys. There are ‘CityFlame’ logos on the mirror triangles and a set of Brabus headlights.

Inside the Cityflame there are yellow inlays in the cloth/fake leather seats, yellow stitching, yellow splashes on the dash and steering wheel and a set of mats with embroidered ‘CityFlame’ motifs.

Under the skin is the usual choice of 71bhp or 84bhp petrol engines and a decent spec including AirCon, electric windows, SatNav, sun roof (on the coupe) and electric soft top on the cabrio.

Prices for the CityFlame start at £10,995 for the 71bhp Coupe and rise to £12,995 for the 84bhp Cabrio.

Gary Savage, Mercedes MD, said:

Smart special edition models have always proved popular amongst drivers who really do want to stand out from the motoring crowd and we expect this latest version to continue the trend.

With its sensational styling and myriad features, the smart fortwo cityflame edition is a real head-turner and is certain to add a huge splash of colour to the life of its owners.

The Smart ForTwo CityFlame is now up for grabs in the UK, but if you want one you’d better hurry – Mercedes are building just 200.
